The medical history of the patient is taken by our Neurologists in the beginning of the treatment, followed by a physical examination. The examination helps us to evaluate the condition of the patient’s Nervous System on the basis of the following factors: cognitive function, cranial nerves, motor, sensory reflexes, and coordination.

Treatment plans differ from patient to patient, depending upon the type of Neurological disorder. Patients are often referred to a physiotherapist, speech therapist, or psychotherapist; put on medications, advised on lifestyle modification or referred to a Neurosurgeon when a surgery is needed.
